Since the very important and big release of Python v3.0 (also knowed as “Python 3000″) in december, there has been some minor bugfixes and further improvements. Now, in Python v3.1, we may get to feel these bugfixes and enhancements.

Of important changes we may highlight such as:
- The IO module have been reimplemented in C for gaining even more speed
- Decoding of utf-8, utf-16 and latin1 is know from 2x to 4x times faster than before
- int and str comparisons is know faster
So, for all Python v3.0 people out there, I would suggest upgrading to this lastest version. Visit this site: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.1/
